Black cohosh is for menopause, but the lady at Neals Yard gave my mum Goldenseal which i have been using for the past 2 hours every half an hour...so many drops on my tongue, and ladies.......it tastes nasty but i have on good authority that if i continue to use it i will be in labour soon....if this is another old wives tale such as the clary sage and pineapple then i'll let you know...if it isn't then i plan to buy a huge amount of it, put it in pretty packaging and sell it on ebay
